Bankrupts in England and Wales
(1824)
The Law Advertiser printed details of the progress of the administration of bankrupts' estates. One section was the choosing of assignees. This is the index to the bankrupts themselves, rather than the assignees. Under the heading 'Assignees Chosen', the bankrupts' surnames are given in capitals, often with the christian name in lower case; and then the name, occupation and address of the assignees. The assignees were often principal creditors, often relatives of the bankrupt. January to December 1824.WHITE. Cost: £4.00. | Sample scan, click to enlarge

Boys entering Sedbergh School
(1824)
B. Wilson prepared this edition of the register of the Grammar School at Sedbergh in the West Riding of Yorkshire, published in 1895. Sedbergh school had three exhibitions at St John's College, Cambridge, and for the earliest years little more could be found about the pupils at the school than was recorded at St John's or other colleges. In 1700-1706 the first material from Sedbergh appears, but no more than lists of surnames. From 1746 onwards full names, or surnames and initials, are found for those boys who did not continue to university. It is only from 1820 onwards that the school register starts to give detail: month of entry, age, birthplace, and month of leaving. From then onwards Wilson was able to add more and more biographical detail, except, of course, for those boys in 1895 still at the school or with their careers yet ahead of them.WHITE.
